A good show on a Cali tour getting Mydland in sync.
Very nice 1st set with a little bit of everything.
Already pretty well reviewed
Comment on Althea: ... I am just noticing the pace of this tune is very different to what i remember at shows 84/93 whereas something like Sailor >Saint sounded pretty much exactly as it does here in 1979
Shakedown>Bertha ---Now that is a combo
Pre-drums list is creative enough that even LLR flows.
The Other One gets fierce
Phil pounds a few before band goes into Truckin
Stella>Good Lovin E) Johnny B
'Goode' sound and great show!

I love the early Brent years thanks to the access to shows this site provides. There was new blood, new life. Referenced the Good Lovin' just as an indication

of why I keep streaming these years. High energy, well played....Brent was the man....sorry I didn't appreciate him more while at the shows back in the day. Hindsight 20/20.

This show stands out to the listener very clearly as one of the first Brent shows. His voice is so fresh and high that there are moments when he really
...
sounds like Donna. They are clearly trying to get the vocal haromies worked out. Brent comes on strong and drowns out the instruments sometimes. Jerry does sound a little lost. I don't think this was due to Drunkedness, but probably more about not knowing quite where and when to come in. Luckily Bob has no problem taking the bold lead. Truckin is a good example of this touchiness. It is also a good example of Brents musical talent to blast in the organ quite nicely so early on in his career. The 01 is really delightful, without too much jamming, but the confidence needed to break on through. I really enjoyed the shakedown->bertha... but the killer this show isssss
Big River, yes thats right, Big River. Jerry skillfully applies the flame to the fuel at just the right moment to take you out into space at 10 Gs... nothing left to do, but pull your underwear back out your crack jack. Hot show!

Perhaps it was dumb of me, given that it was definitely the best sound they ever had at U.C.L.A. and consequently my best recording, when the soundboard
...
came out I eventually taped over mine with the board!
I too liked the "Stella Blue", but I liked others versions better for example, the one I recorded at Winterland '78, (mine doesn't cut like the board), or when it rained at Red Rocks earlier this year '79 so they had to move to McNichol's in Denver, not to mention although I wasn't there, the last day of 6 at the Orpheum in San Francisco in '76 which was broadcast on the radio.
Regardless, of this "Stella Blue" as compared to others; without a doubt having heard many, this is one of the best versions of "Shakedown Street" with that keyboard of Mydland and the jam as as whole -> "Bertha" with the revolving accent (in Bertha on a chosen beat up through and especially beat #5)! The whole show is fairly good just like the San Diego shows before it, yet I'm still a bit partial to the second San Diego show and not because I live now 2 1/2 blocks from where those where; at the time I lived in Hermosa Beach (L.A. county).

I will say that Jerry seemed off in his own world at the end of the Shakedown, just kinda noodling. But it still has that groove, thanks to Phil.
The Other One is sick and almost caused me to get into an accident while driving.
Get this one! Not sure about this version but the CM transfer up on Lossless Legs sounds great!

Subject: My First Show
I've had this show for quite a while but I figured I'd finally chime in with a review.
I went with two buddies and none of us knew much about the Dead. ... I saw the Grateful Dead movie a couple of months earlier; it was my inaugural Trip and knew I had to see them live. We kept saying "Where's the chick" and "who's that keyboard player with all the hair?"
After the opening, I was hooked. Highlights include the Shakedown -> Bertha and the really nice Stella Blue. Too bad the boys stopped jamming out of Stella Blue a few years later. That was always a nice groove for Jerry to shine.
Great show, a hidden gem IMHO, excellent sound too. 4+ stars

I want to start by saying that this recording sounds fabulous. It is a pleasantly balanced mix with nice instrument separation, crisp fidelity, and brilliantly
...
spliced-in second source sections where the primary source didn't exist. 5 star sound!
The playing during this show is difficult to sum up in just a few words. The band plays with good energy and intent on just about everything, with Bob and Phil delivering notable performances. I'd say that most of the band is firing on all cylinders with the notable exception of Garcia. To my ears Jerry just isn't on the ball throughout this show. His voice is very weary and he frequently goofs the lyrics. His guitar playing is sub par as well. His phrasing is off, he plays lots of sour notes and he's generally not as together as the other members. If I had to guess I'd say he was a little too high on something. I mean, it doesn't sound like he's got a cold or is similarly uninspired because there are moments when he is clearly enjoying performing. His playing during this show reminds me of other guitar players I know when they are drunk.
That out of the way I'd say that the highlights are Jack Straw, Ten Jed, Sailor>Saint, Deal, Shakedown and TOO. I think the Bertha out of Shakedown was a cool idea and gets props for spontaneity but the execution wasn't terribly impressive.
As I said in the title of the review I have a dissenting view of this show! No offense meant if you love it or what not.
